The Wall Street Journal called me on Ethanol

I was interviewed by a reporter from The wall Street Journal who asked me all kinds of questions about the problems in the marine industry created by the introduction of Ethanol into our fuel. He asked for me to connect him with others in my area and I gave him the names and numbers of Randall, Bob Fiorese, Carl Dareberg and Jeff Briggs who I know have had specific problems. It sounds like he is thinking of coming out to see for himself and talk to us directly.
He also asked for names and numbers of others who have suffered from Ethanol problems that DID NOT live in New York. If that's you and you're willing to talk to the reporter if he calls, please send me or post your full name, day time telephone number and the state you are from.
Maybe we're getting somewhere! Beyond the personal financial implications, I stressed the public safety issue that seems to have been completely disregarded.
